According to report, on Sunday, August 27th, some residents broke into a warehouse where palliatives were kept by the Bayelsa State government in Yenagoa
The warehouse is located along Isaac Boro Expressway in the state capital.
It was gathered that people were angered due to the hardship in the country occasioned by the removal of subsidy on Premium Motor Spirit, otherwise known as petrol.
It was however not clear if the warehouse looted in Yenagoa housed food items promised by Tinubu’s administration, but report says it contained palliatives meant for victims of the 2022 flooding, which has been described as one of the worst floods in Nigeria’s history.
It was further revealed that some of the food items have expired. However, that did not stop the residents from looting the warehouse.
